Oh yea, 1 more thing, How do i pause the movie so people can answer the button question. Like what im making now i have 2 ppl versing each other and then it askes who should win, and i need to make it so that people can click the button they want, so the movie waits for them to make a choice then i goes to the frame i put that ending on. Wow. Yea, thats what i need to know.

</div>

to make a symbol hit [Ctrl]+[F8]  
going somewhere (put in actions for button/mc):

```auto
on(release){
gotoAndPlay(frame);
}

```

to pause a movie:

```auto
on(release){
_root.stop();
}

```

to continue playing:

```auto
on(release){
_root.play();
}

```

ask more if you’ll have any probz
